Just ran across this article:
http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/dynamic/news/top_story.html?in_review_id
=437277&in_review_text_id=386349 . What I thought most interesting in
the article was this "Police fear that the increasing use of guns on
the streets, now almost an everyday occurrence in boroughs such as
Hackney or Lambeth, is spilling over into the heart of the capital."
Strange, I thought that the banning of firearms in the UK was supposed
to stop this kind of thing.
